Join us as we gather at the 1951 brick ranch house and large yard/habitat garden of Candace Tomlinson in recovery from grass, junipers, too many trees and a misguided phase of non-native xeriscape favorites (think Russian sage, cushion spurge, variegated vinca major, Jupiter’s beard). After 23 years, inching toward the final goal of a mostly prairie cottage garden with 75 percent natives, a few mostly old trees, some traditional garden perennials (hardy roses, peonies, Carol Mackie daphnes), a few xeriscape holdovers (catmint, plumbago), a catnip forest for the cats, and room for a few edibles like strawberries and raspberries. So an eclectic, mishmash, multi-purpose, jack-of-all-trades garden for people, pets, birds, pollinators. 

Come together with other Wild Ones members for this Jeffco Region Meet-Up!
